Results from the Final Resolution Pay-Per-View
James Storm vs. Kazarian The Pay-Per-View opened with James Storm calling out Bobby Roode but instead Kazarian entered to call out James Storm but turned into a match between the two grapplers. The match initially started outside but was brought into the ring where the ref was able to officially start the bout. Kazarian seemed to focus on the head and neck of the Cowboy and was able to work Storm into a choke hold. The two were able to wear down on each other but Storm came out with the upper hand and nearly landing a last call super kick, but was stopped when Kazarian ducked behind the ref. This effort by Kazarian wasnt enough to stop Storm. After failing to implement the fade to black finisher, Kazarian was taken out by the last call superkick and was pinned by Storm.
X DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP: Kenny King earned the #1 Contendership to face RVD for the X Division Championship on Thursdays IMPACT WRESTLING. The Matchup Started with the two shaking hands then locking up with RVD who was able to get King into a side headlock. The two exchanged holds with brief spurts of explosive moves from the two. King led into an impressive near pinfall to get things in his favor leading to Van Dam leaving the ring to slow down the momentum of King. Upon entering the ring RVD began working on Kings left leg to wear him down. When attempting to go high risk, RVD was taken out by King who kicked him causing him to fall from the top rope onto the ground. King brought RVD back in for a near pinfall. After some wearing down RVD made an attempt at two near pinfalls. The two went back and forth with neither successfully able to get the 3 count. After a monkey flip and a rolling thunder Van Dam was going for the five star frog splash but was stopped by King. However, things did not stay in Kings favor as RVD performed a body scissors into the cover to get the pin for the win and retain the X Division Championship.
WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP: Joey Ryan And Chavo Gurerrero faced off in the ring but at the start Joey Ryan didnt seem to keen on locking up with Guerrero, finally things sped up leading to Hernandez and Guerrero breaking down the sleezy superstar. Ryan managed to tag in Morgan who basically manhandled Guererro leading to Hernadnez and Morgan facing off in a pushing match with each trying to knock the other down. Finally Morgan managed to clothesline Hernandez to knock him down and tag in Joey Ryan. Hernandez put Ryan into a vertical suplex. Hernandez and Chavo traded off on wearing down Ryan with few opportunities for an offense from Ryan. After some work Ryan was able to tag in Morgan to wear down Chavo and allow for Ryan to come in and get back to work on him. The two worked together to wear down Chavo before Hernandez got back into the game and faced off with Ryan. After some back and forth it came down to Chavo Guerrero who jumped off the top rope for a near pinfall on Ryan but was abruptly stopped by Morgan who pulled out the ref from the ring to stop the count. The match was thrown out and the two teams ended up brawling with Hernandez getting the last move in.
BULLY RAY VS. AUSTIN ARIES At the start of the match Aries immediately slid outside the ring to make sure that Bullys chain was not close to be used as a weapon. Aries managed to do a few things that seemed to make Bully angrier than he obviously already was. Bully Ray went to work on Aries, but Aries managed to turn things around to break him down for many near pinfalls. Aries even took a moment to mock the general manager Hulk Hogan during his series of offenses on the Bully. Aries wasnt able to wear him down enough to prevent Bully from landing a brutal missile drop kick. After getting knocked outside the ring Aries attempted a suicide dive that was stopped abruptly by Bullys foot. After some in ring action, things ended up back outside the ring and at some point caused Bully to start bleeding. As Bully was bleeding in the ring Brooke Hogan Came in to aid Bully, however, she was taken by Aries into the ring. Bully stopped Aries who got Brooke to leave with Hulk Hogan, who was at ringside c to assist. As Bully was distracted Aries got a low blow in and was able to get the pin for the win.
KNOCKOUTS CHAMPIONSHIP: The two locked up with the advantage shifting quickly from one to the other with no shortage of hair pulling. Early on Tara wanted to call for a time out. Mickie seemed to have the advantage for the most part. When things seemed dire, Jesse pulled Tara out of the ring but Mickie kicked them both down. Tara was able to get control but after a counter Mickie had the pin on Tara, but referee Taryn Terrell was distracted by Jesse. Favor went back to Tara for a short time but Mickie did not back down and the extremely physical matchup continued with Jesse again pulling out Tara from harms way though Mickie was there to jump onto Tara from the top rope. Tara was able to get the three count after a widows peak taking advantage of Mickie being distracted by Jesse.
ACES & EIGHTS VS. KURT ANGLE, SAMOA JOE, GARETT BISCHOFF & WES BRISCO The Captains, Devon and Kurt Angle faced off to start things out then things changed up when Samoa Joe and Doc were tagged in. Samoa Joe was able to man handle him at the start. Garett and another Member were the next to face off with things going back and forth between these two. Next up is Wes Brisco who faces another anonymous member of Aces and 8s. Joe came back in and faced off with Devon where Devon maintained the advantage despite Joes attempts. DOC and Devon and the anonymous Aces and 8s members tagged in and out to tear down Samoa Joe. Joe was able to get things together enough to tag in the Olympic Gold Medalist to take out the Aces and 8s members in the ring but it lead to all out warfare with everybody fighting. Angle managed to get the pin after some close moments and being nearly taken out by DOC who was stopped by Garett and Wes Brisco.
ONE FINAL TIME Christopher Daniels vs. "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles A lot of bitter feelings came to a head in this final match between the two former friends. The match started out with each man being fairly cautious making calculated moves. Each time things seemed to elevate Styles worked to slow things down by taking time outside of the ring. The two worked on each other with a hits and submission moves. AJ Styles managed to pick up the obvious advantage for some time but Daniels was able to turn it around and tear apart AJ. The two went hard at it with Styles getting cut open, which seemed to light a fire and allow him to unleash a series of offenses on Daniels who remained resilient. Styles attempted to finally finish things off with a Styles Clash off the top ropes however it was reversed by Daniels who was able to actually land a Styles Clash on him and get the three count for the win against the Phenomenal one.
MAIN EVENT: WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP: The crowd was very much behind Jeff Hardy for the Main Event of the night. Roode went in after Hardy very heavy beating him into the corner and continuing it throughout the ring. The favor went to Hardy who kept the momentum for some time until Roode was able to pick up near pinfalls and pick up favor in this matchup. Roode was able to keep things going his way for a big part of the match and he worked at slowly tearing down Hardy. After taking too long to make his move up off the top rope Hardy managed to pick up some momentum but it was very short lived. The brutal match continued and it seemed neither competitor wanted to let up. Things seemed questionable for Jeff Hardy after missing a jump off the stairs and landing on the guardrail instead. Roode tried to capitalize on the injured Hardy but he managed to kick out. Roode tried one more time to capitalize but was kicked off the top by Hardy who landed a Swonton Bomb but was unable to make it for the cover. A weakened Hardy was gored by Roode who went for the cover but could not get the pin. Roode who was distracted by The Aces and 8s who just showed up was taken out by Hardy with a twist of fate and able to get the 3 count for the win to retain the title. Directly following the match the Aces and 8s took out Hardy. Roode began yelling about how he paid the group on Thursday and said he should be champ now so the group proceeded to take out Bobby Roode as well.

Blossom Twins Interview: Talks TNA British Boot Camp, Wrestling, Futures, More
Hannah and Holly, The Blossom Twins recently took part in an interview with TNA British Boot Camp. In this interview, they talked about TNA how they got into wrestling, their future, and more. Here are a few highlights;
Q. What's the toughest thing you faced in TNA British Boot Camp?
"Both - The opportunity to go to the Impact Zone was the biggest moment of our careers so far. We had to be over-prepared and ready for everything which was nerve-wrecking and tough, especially knowing Dixie Carter, Hulk Hogan and the likes of Jeff Hardy were watching every move and we had to impress the crowd!"
Q. How did you get into Wrestling and then make the breakthrough to be a star on UK Wrestling scene?
"Both - Long story short, we watched it from the early age of 12 and decided that was what we wanted to do. We researched schools at 14 and started training at 15. We also trained in the States for two years, which I think really put us on the map. We worked hard until we were ready to be on shows and then continued to work our way up!"
Q. What would it feel to be able to represent the UK in TNA Wrestling?
Holly - "It would be incredible - we have so many people who have supported us in the UK, that to go and represent them in one of the biggest companies there is, it would just feel amazing! To also show the kids we teach that dreams really do come true if you work hard at them is huge."
Hannah - "It would be incredible to represent the UK in TNA. So many people have supported us and we have learnt from some amazing people over here, so to make them proud would be amazing!"
Q. Where do you see yourselves in 3 years?
Hannah - "We have been so blessed and grateful with the opportunities we have been given so far, so we like to live for the moment and take each day as it comes and just have fun! So hopefully just working hard and doing more of what we love!"
Holly - "I'd like to think that in 3 years time, I can look back on having been both a TNA Tag Team Champion, as well as a Knockout Champion. As far as what I'll be doing then, we'll have to wait and see!"
Q. What has been the most enjoyable part of being on TNA British Boot Camp?
Holly - "Where to begin?! The travelling has been incredible, we've been so lucky to go to some places that we've never been to before. Meeting our childhood hero is probably one of the biggest, that was such a surreal moment and one that we'd waited for 12 years! But honestly, I know it sounds cliché, but the whole experience has been a once in a lifetime thing, therefore we've enjoyed every moment and have gone into each challenge with a positive attitude! We are incredibly blessed!"
Hannah - "The whole experience has honestly been incredible and a dream come true. Being on the road and experiencing life as a TNA wrestler and getting to visit some amazing places was fantastic and so enjoyable. We definitely had some scrapbook worthy moments from meeting our inspiration, to experiencing the Impact Zone, to learning from legends!"
TNA British Boot Camp starts on Challenge TV on Tuesday 1st January 2013 at 10pm. Full interview can be read at this link.
WWE Wrestler Says He's Receiving Death Threats Posted by Steve Carrier on 12/06/2012 at 03:18 PM
William Regal stated on Twitter that he has been receiving death threats, with two teenagers also accusing him of child abuse.
"Faceless keyboard warriors are divs but how do you describe someone who puts a profile pic on his account and then gives you abuse. Bless, Regal wrote. "
He continued, "I'm used to abuse and death threats but that has to be stopped."
- The unofficial estimate from a few people close to CM Punk is that he will be out of action for around three weeks but a more solid time frame is expected to be released within a few days. Punk's recuperation time will depend on how well he progresses while rehabbing the knee that was operated on. As noted, Punk's WWE Title match against The Rock at the Royal Rumble is not in jeopardy.
Punk's knee problem had been noticeable by some in recent matches but for the most part he worked through it without any outward signs of a problem. In the storylines, WWE blamed the injury on Ryback putting Punk through the table at Monday's RAW. Word is that the table spot was done in case he needed time off, which he did.
- We noted on Tuesday that WWE officials that Wade Barrett and Dolph Ziggler are now ready for the "big time" main event booking, Ziggler more than Barrett. Regarding current United States Champion Antonio Cesaro, the feeling is that it will take a long time to really get him over but when he is over all the way, it's going to be very strong. their mindset is that Cesaro can win some and lose some along the way to the top and it won't hurt him in the long run.
WWE taped this weeks WWE Superstars Monday Night from the Cajundome in Greensboro, NC. Below are full results:
Tensai defeated Zack Ryder

How many times did you go out there and defend your title, show you were the best in the world when you were banged up? Its a pain game, you know how it is, you know damn well I'm gonna go out there and fight Michael Elgin tonight. Davey says Nigel brings up O'Reilly & Fish, there is one thing I need to ask you, see I need to make the wrong things right, its not about revenge, its about doing the right thing. To do that, I need my partner, Eddie Edwards. I need the American Wolves at Final Battle vs. Fish & O'Reilly. You have the power, Nigel, make it happen. Nigel says Eddie's in Japan, I can't just call him up and ask him. Davey says for Nigel to e-mail him, I don't care what's happened in the past, we're brothers. Send him an e-mail, I guarantee he'll be there, I have all the faith in the world in him. I wouldn't ask if I didn't have faith in him, its the right thing to do. Nigel says alright, I've made my mind up, I'll e-mail Eddie, I'll tell him that at Final Battle it will be the American Wolves reunited against Fish & O'Reilly. But, if he doesn't want to be there, then he won't wrestle at all, that's my decision.
Davey & Nigel shake hands as we go back to the ring for our next match.

Commercial
Back from commercial as Evans & Marshall are still in the ring, along with Kevin Kelly & Nigel McGuinness. Evans grabs the mic away from Kelly and says to Nigel that this is an OUTRAGE! Prince Nana did not just violate me physically, he hurt me emotionally. Do you understand I am under severe psychological distress and it is on your hands as the authority figure of Ring of Honor. I have a restraining order against that peasant, Nana, he was not allowed in this building and that attack that was perpetrated on me is ALL YOUR FAULT!
Nigel gets the mic from Evans and says keep your pants on, mate. Evans says I demand restitution, not comedy. Nigel says you want restitution? I will give you restitution. But, I am going to be pushed around and I'm not gonna listen to the whims of a man with genitals the size of a 4 year old. Its clear that there is only one way to settle this. At Final Battle, RD Evans on one side of the ring and on the other, Prince Nana. One fight to a decision! And if you don't like it, you and QT there can leave ROH forever! And I'll worry about a lawsuit some other time, that's my decision.
Nigel leaves the ring as Evans throws a tantrum in the ring.

Before the main event, Truth Martini comes out to ringside. He enters the ring and has a mic. Truth says to Elgin, on that one day when you needed me the most, Rhino injured me and I could not be by your side in Toronto. And I know for a fact, if I was there, you would have beat Kevin Steen and become the new Ring of Honor World Champion. I let you down, but I'll never you down again. And I know we have the same beliefs, we believe in family, we believe in unity and you also believe in the House of Truth. So, I say to you this, if you promise me that you will not wrestle Roderick Strong at Final Battle, I promise you that you in fact will become the Ring of Honor World Champion.
Elgin takes the mic and says you know what Truth, I promise you. I promise you that at Final Battle, I'm gonna kill Roderick Strong. And I promise you that if you don't leave, what Rhino did to you is gonna look like sunshine & lollipops, compared to what I'm about to do. Martini leaves, but still pleads with Elgin to reconsider.
